March Madness

I am not talking about College Basketball.

I am feeling really good about this challenge now. Getting more miles and feeling my muscles respond. I haven't lost any weight, but that isn't the goal.

I have come to the conclusion that I am doing this not only with my husband and friends, but for me. Me in the sense that I will be 42 years old tomorrow. Metabolism has slowed down. I don't want to get bigger as I get older. I need to make sure I stay active so that I don't become an age/obese statistic. I want to be a healthy statistic.

We were going to try a new diet, the husband and I, but thought better about it after hearing what friends had to say about it. So I am going to stick to the 5 small meals a day, proper portions etc. and make hubby do it too. He has also started going to the gym to lift weights. I love it when he has muscle definition - he just better not come home with veins popping out all over the place. Yuck!

My toes - lets just say that I am pretty lucky they haven't fallen off yet. Although it feels like the baby toe nails want to come off. I gave up taping because it was just too much of a pain. The only thing I can do is continue with these shoes and hope that my soaking them in water the other night helps to release the leather some more. Who knows.

Miles to Date: 117.28
